The area is really convenient walking distance to line 1. staff are really friendly and helpful, i communicate with them for an earlier check in and they were ok to accommodate as there was a room available. also offered to help me with my baggage’s. the only thing i disliked was the property was obviously under maintained. but cleanliness was good despite the walls and not maintained. with the price i think its a perfect choice tbh just dont be too picky and you will enjoy your stay. also would like to recommend the property to clean the Air Conditioner.

スタッフの方がとても親切丁寧で、安心出来る施設でした。 簡易ベッドや、排水の詰まり等、 1泊1人あたり7000円程度。 綺麗なホテルに泊まりたい方はもう少し金額を出すか、遠いホテルに泊まるのが良いかもしれない。 とにかくスタッフの方が丁寧です。

チェックインの時スタッフの方が上まで荷物を運んでくださり、本当に助かりました。 とても親切で、夜まで入口にスタッフの方が居るのが安心出来ました。 ですが、全体的に清潔感がありませんでした。 ・ベッドのシーツはシミが沢山 ・掛け布団もシミ ・シャワーも下水の匂い？が部屋まで匂いました ・タオルも黒い汚れや穴があいていました ・滞在期間ハエを何回も倒しました スタッフの方が親切だっただけに、少し残念でした。 周辺に関しては別の方が仰っているように、少し危ない？イメージでしたがコンビニも近くにあるので私は気になりませんでした。 それよりもゴミが沢山捨てられており、そこに虫が集まっていてその中を通るのが気になりました。

駅近、カンジャン市場も東大門も近くロケーションはとても良いです。ホテル前の路地は怪しい雰囲気で夜遅く歩くのは避けようかなとは思いました。近くのCUは品揃え豊富。 お部屋は価格相応の設備。部屋で食事ができませんので地下の共用ラウンジを利用しました。朝は簡単な朝食があります。 フロントのお兄さんが親切でそれが良かった。節約旅行ではリピするかも。

My friend and I really enjoyed our stay at the Star Hostel Suite. From arriving to leaving the staff was very kind and helpful. The location is super convenient. We would stay here again when visiting Korea again. Thank you so much! Also the free breakfast is a nice touch. It is a very simple set up, but good and does the job.

地下鉄1号線の鐘路5街駅3番出口から徒歩数分の距離です。6002空港バスの停留所も近くにあります。地下のカフェテリアで朝食を食べることができます。パン・チーズ・卵・牛乳・ジュース・シリアル・コーヒー、ジャム・ピーナッツバター・チョコレートシロップ、いろいろそろっていて、ありがたいです。電子レンジが使える、スタッフにお願いすれば電熱調理器具も使えます。とにかくカフェテリアのキッチン設備がとてもありがたかったです。ベッドの寝心地もよくて、シャワーの水圧・温度も十分です。何か困ったら、スタッフに話してみると何かと親切に対応してくれます。また宿泊したいと思いました。
